Steve Carell Talks Missing ‘The Office’ Finale

The series finale of “The Office” is quickly approaching and the final episode is said to bring back some of the series’ favorite characters. However, one man is going to be missing — Steve Carell who played the lead character until 2011, when Michael Scott decided to move to Colorado with his girlfriend.

“I figured the character would go back and visit everybody, but he wouldn’t do it on camera at this point,” Carell explained,” I think he had grown past the idea of being in the documentary, that was my take on it. That [Michael Scott] had said goodbye to that aspect of his life, that that’s not what was important to him.”

“The Office” will air its series finale on May 16. Both BJ Novak and Mindy Kaling are expected to return for the last episode.
